What I have noticed in this section is that Idaho2018 has been treating magazine articles as if they are written in stone. He apparently does not go out to the dragstrip and see what the actual cars that are sold off the lots really do. He has argued with me in the past from that perspective, when I had told the truth about the 2018+ 5.0 Mustang compared to the SS Camaro. Seems he did not like that truth, because he quoted magazine specs in an attempt to refute the reality that I have been seeing relative to those 2 cars. So, I'm guessing that his faith in that motor trend article is just more of that same devotion to the propoganda indistry.
